These ceramic hot dogs in buns are proudly on display on the counter of a hotdog stand in the Chicago suburbs where my parents live. The place is owned by a dude named Fred and is called Fred-Hot Dogs (get it?)

Beautiful! I’ve seen tons of ceramic dachshunds but not wrapped in buns like these. Are they just sculptures or are they serving pieces? Can’t see if their backs are carved out for mustard or something.
How do Fred dogs taste? I LOVE hot dogs.

Initially, I thought these were just ornamental, but I can now see that the larger of the two dogs has a big cork in his butt, so I guess he’s storing something.
The hot dogs were really great, as were the Belgian cut fries.

What are Belgian cut fries? I never discriminated against a potato that was fried.

From the Belgian fries website:
A definition of what makes fries Belgian Fries:
freshly cut, irregularly shaped
cooked (fried) twice
fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside
a distinct potato taste
at least 10 mm thick
preferably served in a paper cone
If 1 of these characteristics is absent, please do not use the term Belgian Fries, just call them fries (or French fries if you prefer).

Fabulous! These dogs wrapped in buns are perfect!
It works so well with the kitchen setting.
